Good movie but grossly overrated
it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
This is a fairly tame film about to young people who meet in Yanbian, China to participate in a excavation there of ancient Korean treasures. Chul-soo (In-Seong-Jo) is a lazy guy of privilege in South Korea who is going to Yanbian to be able to graduate. Yeong-Hee (the fairly beautiful Sa-rang Kim) is from North Korea and is an honors student. Chul-soo wants to be with her but, of course, given the conflict between the Koreas, it is quite a difficult thing to even think about, especially from Yoeng-hee's eyes.The film is political in that respect, but its simplistic in its approach, aiming low so you care less about their respective country's ideological differences and concentrate more on their relationship. Its an okay film, mostly a date movie. If you like these kind of films, its okay. Otherwise, it is not essential.
